noble Nobel
In 1991, Kevin Costner won Best Director for Dances With Wolves over, also nominated, Martin Scorsese for Goodfellas. Hindsight shows us that the Academy was clearly wrong that year. DwW is a fine movie but it pales in… -
Black enough
I was one of those people that objected to the identification of Barack Obama as "Black" or "First Black President". The older I get, the more I am offended by racism and, thankfully, the less I actually witness its dis… -
Begging, remembering and warning
I beg your indulgence. You're way more fascinating than me. That's not just idle flattery. I really mean it. You're the bomb. The only thing cooler than you is your mom. But, hey, everybody knows how cool she is.Ev… -

The Man of Lawlessness
I got a very painstakingly constructed e-pistle* from a member, I assume, of the so-called Christian Right. You ever get on someone's email list like that? 5,6,7 times a week it's some warning about a company or TV sho…
